giant kermit the frog to hover over place vendome for art basel paris 2025

The monumental green figure of Kermit the Frog is set to soon take flight above the stately facades of Place Vendôme as part of the Art Basel Paris Public Program. From October 20th to 26th, 2025, Alex Da Corte's artwork will occupy the sky, transforming the historic square into an unlikely stage for a scene of comic melancholy. Presented by Sadie Coles HQ, the project takes the form of an enormous helium-filled inflatable, a towering, 19.75-meter-long effigy of the beloved Muppet icon.
